The heart beats true

That was a good day at the footy. Hawks had a real crack, but our class won out after half time. G was in good form and once again we got a good crowd in. Since Fritta went down we’ve gone 6-1, with the one loss by 4 points. I think if we were promised that after his injury we’d take it.

How’s the hair looking?

This is why I love footy fans. Crows get absolutely robbed, and someone says ‘yeah, but remember that game 32 years ago against that club that doesn’t exist anymore?’ 🤣

He was 11 metres out on a 30 degree angle. Absolute shank.

Kev, I still have dreams that Simon Eishold kicks his goal in the 1987 Prelim. Moving on isn’t my specialty.

Even with 20/75 vision the dog could see THE BALL WASN’T TOUCHED!

Maysy will be in the defenders ears this morning: Gesticulate wildly like you’ve touched the ball, even if you’re nowhere near it, and Slap the goal post to take the edge technology out. Do those 2 things and we can’t lose.

I think this was a genuine surprise to most clubs, especially us. The AFL seemed to be heading towards 5 on the bench and the same rotations, which would have been big for us. Then they somehow reverted to the sub rule and made our ruck experiment less damaging.

Ok, so we’ve spent 10 years integrating this system and we’ve had 2 decisions in a row decided by an umpires mistake. So how is this better? Go back to the old system. I can’t handle another week of broadcasters telling me I’m not seeing what I can clearly see.

Fox Footy doing everything not to say it was an absolutely terrible mistake. We can see it!

The footage shows the ball nowhere near the padding. Thats a clear mistake.

Was the a point? Wow.

Not necessarily in that order.

Crows kicking themselves out of it.

Jack Sinclair looks like the kind of guy that sells Air-conditioning units in Florida, but he’s a hell of a footballer.

It’s almost like Geelong are really ordinary away from their home ground?

He’s what the kids call a ‘nepo baby’.

The last few rounds of footy have really proven that it’s not about who you play, but when you play them.

I hate when Tom Hawkins looks like a nice bloke. Makes it much harder to hate him. Don’t worry. I’ll find a way.

I’m sure they’ll get a state funeral in their taxpayer funded stadium.

Don’t apologise. I don’t know either! I tried to google it but I know it’s been a 2 year deal for the last few deals so I can assume it’s been made since we won the flag. It’s apparently worth 600k a year. It’s a lot of money. I just absolutely hate it. We are the Melbourne side and I feel like everyone else gets precedence over our town. We should be doing everything we can to associate our club with Melbourne, and the MCG. Anyways, will be interesting to see if it comes to an end, or if we still need to do it given we are debt free. 👍

Yeah, they are. It obviously started at 5, with most of the players in attendance.

Why? We didn’t need to travel, our attendance in Melbourne has been really strong, and we have record membership. If the club can’t turn that into more revenue, coming off a recent premiership, then they should ask hard questions of the sponsorship team.

My least favourite loss is the GWS game, because it was an own goal from the club. Selling home games in such a tight season is inexcusable.
